I shake them as much as possible first supporting branches at a time. Then I use the leaf blower on lowest setting and kind of angle it so the air is blowing up from under the leaves. It’ll depend on how powerful the blower is as to how far back from them u need to stand.
I don’t miss the constant rain. I used to live on Whidbey Island down in coupeville nice durning the summer and I miss mt Baker and the falls for snow boarding.
Yeah I can’t say I’ve budded mine outside tho. I agree, blower or not I wouldn’t be comfortable letting them get wet.A friend of mine growing outdoors uses a cheap canopy to cover his plants when it rains. You'll never get all the water out by shaking or blowing. Depending on where you live that might not be that big of a problem but here in the pacific northwest wet buds are bad when it gets later in the season when the temps go down and the humidity goes up. Bud rot, powdery mildew won't be far behind. He covered his frame with clear plastic to let light through.
I did the same
Shake it like I tow you money
